Chemical Solutions for Termite Infestation

Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals can be easily detected by termites / white ants, which makes them excellent for protection around treated areas. However, in the event the treated locations aren’t fully covered, or if they later get compromised, termites can detect these breaks and once again access the property.

The most frequently used repellent is Bifenthrin, which has a lasting effect of as many as five years after application.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

Termites don’t detect these repellents. As a result, they do not avoid the treated areas, and thus die after they have contact with them. In addition, termites will transfer the chemical to other colony members, creating a flow on result.

Because the termites can not identify these non repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated places, and are less likely to gain ingress through possible breaks.

Fipronil is a commonly used non-repellent on the market, and has a residual life of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems are used to eliminate termites from structures by placing bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix as opposed to the timber they were consuming. Worker white ants then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this fashion, the colony may be eliminated even when the position of the colony is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of new bait stations, or if they should be moved to another place.

In Ground Systems may be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is especially vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they catch the white ants before the perimeter is breached.

Baiting System Advantages

• Not afflicted with weather
• No danger for the kids & pets
